Overview

Overview

Summary

  • Commander Cain calls Commander Adama. Adama thanks Cain for the assistance, and claims everything is under control. Adama requests to land his Viper's on Pegasus as it will take a while to repair the landing bays on Galactica. They agree to meet in Adama's quarters in 20 centons to discuss their battle plans to take advantage of the surprise that Pegasus has inspired in the Cylons.
  • Apollo reports that the Cylons have three base ships as well as four squadrons from Gamoray. Colonel Tigh believes that there is no way they could survive a united attack from that force.
  • Commander Cain argues that now is the perfect time to attack the base on Gamoray, as it would surprise them. Apollo agrees that they would not be expecting it.
  • Adama points out that the anti-assault batteries on Gamoray would wipe out the battlestars. Cain proposes sending a commando team to knock out they anti-assault batteries, clearing a way for the attack.
  • The basestars would attack while the ships were capturing the fuel, so Cain proposes that one battlestar engage the basestars in a delaying tactic. He suggests Pegasus for that duty, as Galactica is still undergoing repairs.
  • Adama calls Cain into his quarters. Adama is afraid that Cain does not comprehend the risks to the fleet that his plan calls for. Cain claims that is what the delaying operation is for. Adama decides to go with Cain's plan, only asking that there be no more surprises.
  • Cassiopeia sees Cain in the hallway, and wants to talk to him. Cain doesn't have time, as the mission starts soon, and he won't let her come to Pegasus. He says she will be safer on Galactica. He tells her he loves her, and that he'll see her after the mission.
  • Boomer asks Apollo what their odds are, walking right into a Cylon city. Apollo doesn't think Boomer really wants to know. Starbuck comes in carrying extra laser pistols thinking that they might need some extra firepower.
  • Bojay and Sheba enter, asking to check in. They have been assigned to the mission by Commander Cain. They claim to be the only ones familiar with the target. They've flown over it several times, but have never been on the ground.
  • Sheba seems pessimistic about their success, while Starbuck remains optimistic. He offers a side bet of a "personal" nature. Sheba declines, as she wouldn't want to have to throw the mission just to avoid the bet.
  • Cassiopeia stops Starbuck on the way to the shuttles. She wants to talk to him. Starbuck tries to brush her off, but she insists on trying to find out what Cain is planning. She thinks he isn't planning on coming back, or he would have let her go to Pegasus. Sheba agrees, and wants to go find out what he is planning. Apollo points out that Cain ordered her on the mission, but she admits that the whole thing was her idea. Cassiopeia offers to take her place, pointing out that they don't have a medtech with them.
  • Baltar asks for the situation report from Lucifer. Lucifer reports that the consensus is that they should ask for help from the base on Gamoray. Baltar dislikes the idea of the commander of Gamoray taking credit for destroying Galactica. Baltar asks for the strength of the base, and Lucifer tells him that there are four complete squadrons, the equivalent of a base star. Baltar realizes that they have the firepower of four basestars at their disposal, and orders an immediate attack.
